Bundle Contents Constraints

Our next consideration concerns which users' reports should be printed together (that is, what the contents of each bundle will be). You may want to create one bundle per user, or you may want to include reports for several recipients in one bundle (the default).

This will probably be determined by how you currently dispatch your reports. For example, if you send all output to a particular branch in a box then you may want to include reports for all users at that location in one bundle.

Some sites that mail reports to recipients produce one bundle per recipient. These bundles are automatically addressed by Control-D. The printers print, split and shrink-wrap the recipient's bundle so that it can be mailed immediately.

In theory, you could print all the reports in one "Super Bundle," but one of the drawbacks of this method is that it is not as flexible as producing smaller bundles (for example, assigning printing priorities, scheduling the print workflow and specifying print dependencies). In other words, printing in the best sequence to meet business objectives by printing the most important or distant user bundles first is recommended.
